Talk:The Transformers (IDW)

I'm confused. IDW's promo blurb online says the war ended three years ago. In the issue, Hot Rod says it's been two years. Which is correct, book or promo?--SuzyP 19:16, 25 November 2009 (EST)

Book. --ItsWalky 19:41, 25 November 2009 (EST)

On the subject of new paragraphs, I think it should be a new one for every new story arc. Those new paragraphs for every issue will get a bit broken in this instance. Screamer 01:18, 2 March 2010 (EST)

What's going on with the TPB? IDW says it's available, but Amazon and Barnes & Noble both have different release dates. --Zormo 21:58, 10 June 2010 (EDT)

I bought it from my local comic book shop yesterday. --ItsWalky 21:56, 10 June 2010 (EDT)

Do you feel there's room for a few lines on the new alternate modes that everyone has ended up with (eg Hot Rod as a Pagani Zonda) like there was in the AHM overview article? That would be the kind of thing that I'd be willing to do. --SharkyMcShark 10:32, 11 July 2010 (EDT)

I don't this storyline really belongs to this continuity but it does... somehow... --69.19.14.32 14:00, 28 May 2011 (EDT)

#125???

Do you think you got thru to IDW? --66.82.9.75 13:22, 4 June 2011 (EDT), still K_P here!

Issue #21

Currently, issue #21 is splited into two articles: Space Opera—Final Tableaux: Orphans of the Helix and Police Action: Prologue. When you click '#21' link from the template with issues list(Template:Chapters), it leads to Space Opera only. No access to Police Action directly.

So, how can we make both article linked with this page?

• Edit the link.
  • Example: [[Space Opera—Final Tableaux: Orphans of the Helix|#2]][[Police Action: Prologue|1]]
• Merge those two article into one.

And I think the result should be also applied to All Hail Megatron #12~16. – Thunderweb 09:50, 1 November 2012 (EDT)

Personally, I go red-eyed whenever a link tries to be overly cutesy like that. Why not have the template clearly demonstrate the situation with an A and B? Something like:

• • 21<small>([[Space Opera—Final Tableaux: Orphans of the Helix|A]] - [[Police Action: Prologue|B]])</small>

That way, the situation is actually clear to readers, and we still have links.KrytenKoro 12:07, 1 November 2012 (EDT)

Full agreement with KrytenKoro. --Khajidha 12:15, 1 November 2012 (EDT)

OK, I made a sample: {{chapters |style=3 |prev=The Transformers: All Hail Megatron|next=The Transformers: The Death of Optimus Prime|series=the transformers (idw)|align=left|content= * … * [[Space Opera Part 1: The Stars My Destination|#19]] * [[Space Opera Act 2: Out of the Silent Planet|#20]] * #21 <small>([[Chaos Theory Part 1|A]] / [[Police Action: Prologue|B]])</small> * [[Chaos Theory Part 1|#22]] * [[Chaos Theory Part 2|#23]] * … }} – Thunderweb 07:53, 2 November 2012 (EDT)

Looks good to me. I can't imagine anyone would object, as it does help our readers without making the page too complex or ugly. I say go ahead and implement. --Khajidha 08:19, 2 November 2012 (EDT)
